In 2018, it was decided to extend the Corridor to reach Narvik and Haparanda-Tornio from Stockholm and Helsinki.[5]
On 18 May 2021 the European Commission in an answer to a written question from a parliamentarian, confirmed that the Messina Bridge (the connection between Sicily and the Italian mainland) is of fundamental importance to the objective of the Green Deal since it guarantees connectivity and accessibility of all European regions is at the heart of the TEN-T policy. However, it is up to the Italian State to contract out the work, for which some EU programs could contribute under the 2021-2027 multiannual financial framework.[6]
